  1. Just Visiting
    A mess.
    • Baltimore Sun
  2. The Tailor of Panama
    Brosnan turns his typical talent on its head. So does director Boorman, who forsakes his usual tingling virtuosity.
  3. Amores Perros
    A headlong pastiche of lower-depth melodrama and absurd black comedy.
  4. Spy Kids
    The movie's not nearly as cool as the setup.
    • Baltimore Sun
  5. Someone Like You...
    This chick flick never should have made it out of the incubator.
    • Baltimore Sun
  6. Too Much Sleep
    So minimalist that you wouldn't miss much if you watched semi-awake and listened to a friend's running commentary.
  7. The Brothers
    As each male-female relationship works itself out in ways either contrived or predictable, here's betting you wind up more disappointed than enlightened.
    • Baltimore Sun
  8. Heartbreakers
    To its credit, Heartbreakers lives up to expectations. Almost.
    • Baltimore Sun
  9. Say It Isn't So
    Most of the film is one big blooper reel. There's not enough of a gap between the rejects and the finished movie.
  10. Keep the River on Your Right: A Modern Cannibal Tale
    A remarkable film about a remarkable man who's lived the kind of life usually reserved for adventure novels and pulp fiction.
    • Baltimore Sun
  11. Enemy at the Gates
    Keeps its eye on the big picture even when focusing on the small scene.
    • Baltimore Sun
  12. Memento
    The dramatic content in Memento is as blank as Leonard's post-traumatic mental state.
    • Baltimore Sun
  13. The Dish
    It was a time in history eminently worth celebrating on film.
    • Baltimore Sun
  14. Kissing Jessica Stein
    This movie is about the survival of the open-minded. As far as current American independents go, it's the fastest and the funniest.
    • Baltimore Sun
  15. When Brendan Met Trudy
    Poses as the story of a wild, eccentric love match but is really about a match made in limbo.
  16. Get Over It
    A delightful and exuberant bit of romantic comedy and, as a bonus, it breathes new life into a pair of '70s musical chestnuts long off our culture's radar screens.
    • Baltimore Sun
  17. 15 Minutes
    The unearned air of moralism that wafts through 15 Minutes pollutes its entertainment value.
  18. Blow Dry
    A feel-good us-against-them tale that panders mercilessly to its audience, yet displays a few moments of honest humor.
    • Baltimore Sun
  19. The Caveman's Valentine
    From the start, this movie sets the bar high -- then, unfortunately, runs smack into it.
    • Baltimore Sun
  20. Series 7: The Contenders
    Unpretentious and brashly exploitative.
    • Baltimore Sun
  21. The Mexican
    The Mexican is its own worst enemy, consistently undermining its best efforts. The result is an over-long series of quirks, a film that's far less than the sum of its often amusing and ingenious parts.
    • Baltimore Sun
  22. 3000 Miles to Graceland
    This sophomoric film has little to do with Elvis, and everything to do with putting as much carnage as possible on screen under the guise of art, poetry, choreography, taxidermy.
    • Baltimore Sun
    • 40 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Monkeybone
    A raunchy, remorseless "Curious George."
    • Baltimore Sun
  24. Last Resort
    Thanks to the wonderful performances from both Korzun and Considine, there isn't a forced or dishonest moment on-screen.
  25. The Taste of Others
    Its heart and head are in the right place, but its feet and hands aren't busy enough.
    • Baltimore Sun
  26. Hannibal
    Hannibal isn't art. But for filmgoers with a taste for the absurd and a tolerance for the blackest of black humor, it's one heck of a thrill ride.
    • Baltimore Sun
  27. In the Mood for Love
    All about mood, and not one bit about action - which explains why it's at once both the most passionate film of the year so far, and the most determinedly inert.
    • Baltimore Sun
  28. Nico and Dani
    A more honest version of "Summer of '42."
    • Baltimore Sun
  29. Head Over Heels
    When the women are onscreen and their relationship is on display, Head Over Heels trips merrily along. But every time the focus shifts to Prinze, the film suffers from a bad case of fallen arches.
    • Baltimore Sun
  30. The Pledge
    Nicholson is terrific here, in a role that demands he act, rather than just be Jack.
    • Baltimore Sun
